It was a very pleasant trip, with a beautiful environment. We took the sightseeing bus back and forth, but there was still a section of the road up the mountain that required hiking. Some places were steep, and there were steps to see the sitting lotus Guanyin at the end. It might not be convenient for the elderly to go up. The air on the mountain was great. It was a good choice to go out for a walk on the weekend.
The scenery is still very beautiful, take the sightseeing bus, there is a walk, some places in the walk are very steep... The air is very good, suitable for parents and children to relax on weekends... Finally, go to see Guanyin are steps, the elderly with bad legs are not convenient... Overall it is not bad

Travel experience of Yinxian Mountain Villa: The moment you step into Yinxian Mountain Villa through time and space, it seems to have entered a flowing landscape painting. There are both the gentle and flexible Lingnan gardens and the romantic fantasy of the snowy region of Beiguo; With the cultural heritage of history and the passion and vitality of modern amusement, Yinxian Villa, as a treasure tourist destination in Dongguan, has woven a multi-dimensional travel experience across time and space for tourists with its unique charm. The blend of nature and humanities: poetic dwelling between the mountains and the water Yinxian Villa is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and more than 500 acres of parks, green vegetation and simple and elegant buildings are interesting. Walk on the stone road next to the evening Cuiju, listen to the lake water lightly pat the shore stone, see the white scorpion skimming the blue waves, if you are in the quiet painting of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River. The twilight drum and morning clock of Yinxian Temple add a little Zen to this landscape. The 29-meter-high Han Baiyu Guanyinxiang in the temple is solemn, incense is lingering, and the heavy sense of history is coming to your face. It was once the seclusion place of Li Juese, a Xianchen in the late Ming Dynasty. His story is intertwined with the bricks and tiles of the garden, making the natural landscape and humanistic feelings natural. Stimulation and childish collision: the joy of the whole age of the world Yinxian Villa's amusement project can be called "beneficial" model. For tourists seeking excitement, the 286-meter-long glass bridge is a must-check place - walking at 92 meters high, with a transparent abyss at their feet, a roaring mountain wind in their ears, and a heartbeat and screaming intertwined into a movement of adventure. The whirlwind horns and rainbow slides of the water park ignite the cool summer passion with the rapid swooping waterflow. Parent-child families can find pure joy in the kiss zoo. Children can feed cute alpacas, smart ring-tailed lemurs, or stop to watch the gorgeous moment of peacocks. In the Dinosaur Valley, lifelike simulation dinosaurs hide in the jungle, as if bringing people back to the mysterious Jurassic era, where science and fun blend perfectly. Festival magic: from the snow scene of the north to the fireworks If you visit in winter, the artificial snow field of Yinxian Villa will be amazing. In the warm sun of Lingnan, the snow scene of the silver-clad snow is intertwined with the children's playful sound, like the entrance to the fairy tale world. As night fell, an immersive fireworks show on the theme of Liang Zhu pushed the atmosphere to a climax - water curtain, lights, music and fireworks dance, the night sky turned into a radiant stage, which was breathless. The God of Wealth cruise during the Spring Festival and the water splashing carnival in summer make the festival culture penetrate into every corner in a lively way. Intimate travel experience: the warmth in the details The thoughtful service of Yinxian Villa is impressive. There are plenty of dining options in the scenic area, from authentic Lingnan snacks to holiday limited packages, taste buds can also start a trip. If you want to experience in depth, you may as well stay in the hotel in the villa, push the window to see the lake and mountains, wake up in the morning in the birdsong, sleep in the starry sky at night. Tickets and project charges are transparent and reasonable, and the mode of one ticket to play makes the itinerary more worry-free.
Very good experience, a lot of people, very lively, very New Year's atmosphere, the supporting facilities in the park are very good, dining and bathroom can be seen everywhere, very convenient, and the dining price is very close to the people, the fireworks show at night, very exciting, very worth the fare

Stepping into the ancient village of Nanshe from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it feels like traveling through time and space. The bluestone road winds forward, with ancestral halls and ancient houses lined up one after another, and the carved beams and painted buildings show the simple charm of the years. The upturned corners and flying eaves tell the prosperity of the past, and the details of gray sculptures, wood carvings, etc. are exquisitely crafted, which makes people marvel at the ingenuity of the ancients. The village is surrounded by clear water, weeping willows, and the white walls and black tiles are set off, just like an ink painting. Strolling around, listening to the guide telling family stories and historical legends, you can truly feel the profound heritage of Lingnan culture, as if you can touch the atmosphere of fireworks in the past, and you will be intoxicated by this quiet and distant ancient charm and reluctant to leave.
Nanshe Ancient Village is an ancient village with a good reputation and a profound cultural heritage. The most rare thing is that there are free parking spaces. I think the 30 yuan ticket is not cost-effective. The village has a strong commercial flavor. If the ticket is free or a symbolic 10 yuan is charged, it will be more popular and the flow of people will be greater, and the business of the merchants will be better.

Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo Travel Experience: A Wonderful Journey of Close Embrace with Nature
Walking into Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo on the weekend, it was like stepping into an animal kingdom full of vitality and surprises. This journey of dancing with creatures brought me a lot of joy and touching moments.
As soon as I entered the park, the first thing that caught my eye was the lively and agile Monkey Mountain. The macaques jumped and played among the rocks, some hung upside down, some combed each other's hair, and some looked eagerly at the food in the hands of tourists, looking very cute. A little monkey even imitated the actions of tourists, which made everyone laugh. The natural playfulness instantly infected people with their vitality.
Walking along the trail, we came to the beast area. Through the safety glass, the majestic tiger strolled leisurely in the territory, and the king-like eyes were majestic without anger; the lion lazily lay on the grass to bask in the sun, occasionally swinging its tail to drive away mosquitoes, showing the domineering power of the king of beasts. Although separated by barriers, their momentum still makes people feel the power and wild beauty of nature.
What I remember most is the animal performance. The clever sea lions headed the ball and went through the hoop in one go, and they would playfully wave to the audience; the cute black bears turned the hula hoop, and their clumsy and cute appearance made the audience laugh continuously. Watching these animals show their talents under the guidance of the trainers, I was amazed at their intelligence and felt the beauty of harmonious coexistence between humans and animals.
In addition to watching animals, the environment of the park also makes people feel comfortable. The tree-lined paths and carefully arranged landscapes are full of natural atmosphere. There are also many popular science exhibition boards in the park to introduce the living habits and protection knowledge of animals. While playing, I also learned a lot of new knowledge.
This trip to Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo not only allowed me to get close to various rare animals, but also made me deeply appreciate the colorful and precious life. Looking at these lovely creatures, I am more aware of the importance of protecting animals and maintaining ecological balance. I look forward to more opportunities like this in the future to get closer to nature and feel the charm of life!
Xiangshi Zoo is located in Liaobu Town, Dongguan. It is a very nice place to take children there.
There are many animals inside, including elephants, sea lions, etc.
There are also many motorized games, and you can choose to play 7 projects with the package.
